The Hole in the Wall holiday home is part of a Grade 2 listed building, the owners occupy the main house and the recently refurbished cottage is at the rear, it is situated 20 minutes from Bath, Wells and Glastonbury, Cheddar.
On the ground floor there is a kitchen diner, on the first floor there is a large lounge / double bedroom with sofa bed. There is also a separate bedroom with twin beds (or king size if requested)
Home made dinner on arrival - subject to availability.

Gorgeous accommodation, all the facilities you need in a stylish surround. We stayed here with our 1 year old baby and it was just great.

Jessica2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Emma's house was lovely, exactly as it looks in the pictures. The lounge is really spacious and was great for our group of friends. Would definitely recommend to friends!

Danny2017-02-12T00:00:00Z

Directions & access arrangements were very clear & easy to follow. The house itself was attractive & charming. It is located in a square close to a church, so you feel very much as if you are in Olde England. It is near to the centre of town & all amenities. Midsomer Norton itself is an archetypal, pretty English town in the heart of the Somerset countryside

Andy2016-08-27T00:00:00Z

Absolutely beautiful property and immaculately presented. A real home from home! Well equipped kitchen, cosy lounge area with superb feature fire, the bed was lovely and comfy. We only stayed for one night so didn't really explore the local area but driving to and from, you can tell that there is plenty of countryside to explore and it is within a reasonable distance to Bath. Great host and great communication.

Kim2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

Such a great, homely house. Emma was super, being in touch to provide me with all of the information I needed and also getting us some breakfast as we had to get up early for Glastonbury. Thanks so much again! Would recommend

Kimberley2016-06-23T00:00:00Z

Emma's 'Hole in the Wall' was a very comfortable and beautiful flat. The flat was immaculate, with all the kitchen utensils we needed, and a very comfortable sitting room with books and board games upstairs. Lovely place, very easy trip fromBath where we spent the day!

Anna2016-09-22T00:00:00Z

Great again - thank you!

Jason2017-09-03T00:00:00Z

A gorgeous place. The finish is excellent and emma has thought of everything - the kitchen had milk, tea, coffee, olive and vegetable oil and salt and pepper all stocked. It really made our stay that bit easier. The living area is stunning and everything was really comfortable. Thank you Emma!

Walking distance to country pub & restaurant

We had a lovely time staying in Nichola's beautiful home. We were greeted with warmth. Her house was amazing and there was plenty of room for everyone to stay comfortably. The countryside location was perfect with fields next door. A wonderful home and a great host.

Cyrus2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

Nichola's home was a fantastic find for us on our small vacation to Bath UK. Her home was beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable for all 9 of us during our stay. This is a true gem on Airbnb and I would gladly re-book this home if I were to return to the area.

Ganesh2017-09-08T00:00:00Z

Nichola's place was perfect for us! 8 of us came to stay and had plenty of space to spread out across the beautifully furnished house. It was full of comfy sofas and all the bedrooms were lovely (no fights for the nicest room, everyone was happy!). It was also in a great location surrounded by fields but close to Bath. We'd also recommend the pub down the road! Nichola gave us a warm welcome and and was happy to answer questions before we arrived. We hope to be back!

The cottage was delightful. We loved staying at Mells and will be booking this property again for sure. The house was clean, cosy and beautifully done. We will be back for sure.

Cassandra2017-04-17T00:00:00Z

Lovely cottage and the most comfortable bed EVER!

Dafydd 2017-04-16T00:00:00Z

What a great property! We stayed for 4 nights and couldn't have asked for any more. The kitchen is well stocked, and we were even provided with eggs and bacon for breakfast on our first morning! A great, quiet location, perfect for exploring Somerset.

Jasmine2017-05-24T00:00:00Z

Stunning, tranquil countryside location at the end of a mile long drive in the picturesque village of Mells. Daisy our host was brilliant from the moment we got in touch. Wonderful open kitchen with living space including comfy sofas, plus a beautiful bedroom with its own wood burner and a generous supply of logs! Furnished beautifully, we really couldn't have asked for more. It was a real treat to stay here. Would thoroughly recommend and definitely hope to return.

A short but sweet stay. Lower Twig was a beautiful place. It had everything we needed and wonderful surroundings.

Chris 2017-08-10T00:00:00Z

The Twig is beautifully decorated, very comfortable and has lots of period charm. Spotlessly clean, it has a well-equipped kitchen with dining table, relaxing sitting area and modern bathroom and a really comfortable bed, so we slept very well! It is private, peaceful and quiet, but has the advantage of being close to the farmhouse if you need anything from Daisy the lovely, responsive host who made our stay easy. The surrounding Somerset countryside is idyllic. We had a wonderful walk across the fields and explored the village of Mells, complete with village shop, café with local produce and a river running through. There is also a great pub, The Talbot Inn, where the food is excellent and definitely not to be missed. This is a very special place and we will definitely return.

Our main space is a large, recently renovated, bedroom and ensuite bathroom. For groups of 3 or 4 people we then have a second bedroom which is separate from the main house, and which has it's own front door.
This second bedroom has no ensuite bathroom and so guests use the ensuite for the main bedroom.
We do not let the second bedroom separately.
There is tea and coffee making facilities in both bedrooms.
Please see the floorplan in the listing.

Our home is a 15C farmhouse in the village of Croscombe. We have bees, sheep, chickens, turkeys and ducks and sell our produce locally.
Guests are welcome to buy any of our produce including cider, jams, marmalade, chutneys, cordial, beeswax polish, wool and free-range eggs.

We're in a quiet English village with a beautiful church, pub and village shop. Nearby are the destination towns of Wells, Frome, Glastonbury and Shepton Mallet.

We arrived and were welcomed with a smile. Nicola is very friendly and accommodating. Their home is a beautiful farm house and the accommodation for my daughter and myself was just perfect. We were welcome to come and go as we pleased as we had a key. A very clean and spacious room with an en-suite bathroom which had ample hot water and privacy, also stunning views out to a beautifully kept garden. We felt we had plenty of room as we had the use of the conservatory too. Tea and coffee were provided. Should you be the walking type they also have a drying room for your garments if you're caught in a downpour. Just a few minutes drive from Wells where a day out to The Bishops Palace, the Cathedral or a Hot Fuzz movie tour can be enjoyed. Finally the village pub, The George Inn, has the most glorious damson ice-cream which is a taste to behold (and apparently its breakfasts are infamous)! One last note, if you're a light sleeper, take some ear-plugs as it is a farm and as such work starts early from the rooster. It wasn't a problem for us as we sleep like the dead but it may cause you to stir from your slumber. I can highly recommend Nicola and her home and she was a perfect host. P.S. She also sells eggs, preserves and chutneys which you can take as a gift home.

Colette2017-08-11T00:00:00Z

This was a great room for me and my 11 month old. The room is spacious and has en suite. The local pub serves a great cooked breakfast.

Laura2017-07-26T00:00:00Z

Lovely quiet location on the edge of the Mendip Hills with easy access to Wells, Shepton Mallet, Cheddar with access to Bristol. Our Host Nicola was very helpful and met us on our arrival. The place is very nicely furnished and the facilities are excellent. The accomodation was a welcome return for my family from the ballon fesitval and a trip round Cheddar Gorge. We found the place nice and quiet. Would definitely recommend. Perhaps the cockerel was on vacation.

Patrick2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Cozy English village, great food in the pub. Everything was clean and new.

Alona2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Nicola, thank you so much for everything. The place was wonderful and it had a nice modern touch on such a historical home. We will be sure to recommend. Thank you, Pamela

Pamela2017-09-07T00:00:00Z

A lovely room in a quiet village. Nicola sells her turkey eggs and cider and made us very welcome. There is no phone signal in the village but the room had fast wifi when the BT provision works properly (it did most of the time) The room is tasteful and newly refurbished has a lovely en suite and a comfortable bed. Altogether great!!

Steve2017-07-29T00:00:00Z

Lovely,unusual place to stay, very peacful well recommended.

Kay2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

A fantastic place to stay with really friendly hosts. The room was beautiful and our hosts were really flexible regarding check in and check out. Highly recommend!

A perfect location for exploring Somerset; nestled alongside the Mendips (AONB) with easy access to Wells, Bath, Babington, Glastonbury, Street Frome, Cheddar Gorge, Bath and West Showground, Longleat, Stourhead, Bruton and more. There is also a lovely pub with good food 2 mins walk away. A self-contained home that is the west wing of a lovely old character house, once home to the manager of the famous Oakhill Brewery and now renovated and furnished for style, beauty and comfort.
Also great for a stop over to/from Dorset/Devon/ Cornwall.

Oakhill is a quiet and friendly village location with two great gastro pubs; it is an excellent location from which to discover all that Somerset offers both country and city. It is easy to get to Bath, Wells, Frome, Bristol, Hauser & Wirth Bruton. It is superb walking country and a dog-friendly county. There are local markets in Wells on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The Frome Independent market (1st Sunday of the month) is a must for all who love handmade, vintage or great food.
Easy for Dorset coast.

Lovely home, and very welcome host!

Rachel2016-10-16T00:00:00Z

Everything was lovely at Lower Beeches, we really enjoyed our trip! There were lots of lovely extras and the breakfast goods were very well received. The location was perfect for visiting Bath, Frome and Wells which is where we managed in our three days. We will be back I'm sure!

Harriet 2016-08-17T00:00:00Z

Beautiful cottage with so many little touches to make it really special. The owners have out in so much effort to make you feel welcome, from fresh flowers everywhere, a lovely selection of tea and coffee, fresh bread and shampoos provided. Beautifully done.

Natalie2016-11-14T00:00:00Z

A highly recommended place for a stay in the Baths/Wells area. Amanda and Rob are very friendly and attentive hosts, the flat is lovely and very well equipped, the village and area charming, overall extremely very good value.

The accommodation was exactly as described, every possible thought has gone into making your stay truly great, the beautiful home and location is just the start, beautiful quality stylish furnishings and decor, perfectly clean, thoughtful touches such as a welcome goods including fresh bread,milk, coffee, chocolates etc do not hesitate to book this little gem. ☺

Helen2016-08-29T00:00:00Z

We wanted somewhere in North Somerset that allowed us to visit Bath, Longleat and Stonehenge, was clean, quiet and comfortable for us (1 adult and 3 children aged 11y, 9y, 7y), had a good pub a short walking distance away and was reasonably priced for a last minute mini-holiday before term started. Lower Beeches was perfect for us in every way with my eldest telling me the beds were far comfier than those at home!

All our reviews have been 5 star! Our gorgeous converted Coach House is tucked away in the idyllic village of Dinder, near beautiful Wells. It is cosy, romantic and has everything you could want. Within the grounds of the our property, it is very private. It offers a wonderfully relaxing stay with walks in stunning countryside. There is plenty of wildlife around and deer sightings (especially at dusk) are optional!
With an award winning pub a short walk away, what more could you want.

With underfloor heating throughout and dimmable lighting you can set the mood - cosy or bright and airy. The romantic large bedroom sleeps 2 with a gorgeous king-size bed and soft white bed linen. The fresh, contemporary en-suite has a large walk-in shower with rainfall showerhead. The property has a separate lounge, (who says a place for two should compromise on space), complimented by Smart TV, DVD, WiFi and a Digital radio. The spacious, farmhouse kitchen has a dishwasher, induction hob, oven, fridge, toaster and microwave. If weather permits why not use the private south facing garden with church view for a bit of alfreso dining.
In a moment of madness, about 2 years ago we decided to breathe life back into the detached, stone built Coach House, which sits beside our house. We have kept as many of the features as possible, pretty windows, white washed walls and beams, and even used the original stable ceiling to make the upstairs wardrobe. The Coach House retains charm but combines convenience and luxury.
The Coach House is 2 miles from Wells and a great place from which to explore Bath or Bristol, for their shopping, entertainment and culture. Visit unique Glastonbury with its Tor or quirky Frome with its great independent market (on the first Sunday of the month, March - December). Don't forget Wells with its magnificent Cathedral, independent shops and coffee houses. An award winning pub and community supported shop is within walking distance - what could be better?
Dinder nestles on the southern slopes of the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is one of England's most special places. A great place to relax or take in the scenery with a plethora of walks or cycle rides. For those keen on golf there are two Golf courses within 3 miles of the Coach House.
We are in a great location for parents visiting 'boarders' at the following schools: Millfield Prep (15 mins), Millfield (20 mins), Downside School (15 mins), Wells Cathedral School (5 mins), All Hallows Prep (15 mins).
The following local attractions are also nearby: Bath & West Showground, Wookey Hole Caves, Glastonbury Festival Site, Kilver Court Designer Village and the Mulberry Factory Shop. Bath and Bristol are both a 45 minute drive away.
All in all, an amazing find.

Dinder is a very special place, we have lived here for twelve years and still feel like we are on holiday, we would like you to feel the same.
Award wining pub in walking distance.
The Coach House is a cosy, romantic retreat set in a beautiful Somerset village. No street lights, no through traffic...... Heaven.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. Perfect for a short break in Somerset; well placed for many attractions with Wells within reasonable walking distance. The cottage is beautifully clean and finished to an exceptionally high standard. Rachel is an attentive and friendly host and we had a wonderful four days.

Kate2017-06-15T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing stay at the coach house, the location is perfect for a weekend away. Dinder is a picturesque village, ideal for walks to the local pub - The George Inn. Definitely recommend visiting Glastonbury Tor, thanks Rachel! The stay was made even better by the homemade flapjacks, cider and bread. Couldn't have asked for a better holiday. We will definitely be back!

Sarah2017-04-08T00:00:00Z

Rachel is a lovelly person with a very friendly family. She hosted us in the Coach House, a beautiful and well decorated place. Everything was perfect and exactly as described. The kitchen is amanzingly good with all the stuff that you might need to cook and prepare whatever you want. The Coach house was very clean and looks like as a new place, it is very cozy and perfectly warmed for this winter. We had a chance to go to the christmas carol at the churchs village and it was an incredible experience and we felt as we were part of the village. Very nice community and people. Rachels repcetion was very good with fresh homemade flap jacks, local coconut lime cider and fresh bread and milk. Definetly we will be back to spend some more days at the Coach House in a near future. Thanks Rachel and family to having us during christmas it was a lovelly experience!! Fernanda and Leonardo

Leonardo2015-12-27T00:00:00Z

An amazing weekend away with my husband for my 40th. The village is so picturesque and an easy walk to the pub! The barn is just beautiful and the attention to detail perfect. We spent our second evening walking into Wells across the fields. I have to admit I was a little cautious when Rachel said to take the path by the cricket pavilion and keep walking but the walk was stunning and so beautiful on a warm summers evening. I can't recommend the place enough-so relaxing and perfect x .

Rachel2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

Thank you again for such a great stay at The Coach House! This is our second stay and we have had a fantastic, relaxing, refreshing stay. Everything we could have imagined needing was catered for, we couldn't have asked for a better holiday! The location is perfect, just a stones throw from Wells (advise to go on a Wednesday when the farmers market is on!) and a short drive away from Glastonbury, Clarks Village Outlet, Pilton, Kilver Court Outlet and Wookey.... it's our favourite place to stay in the whole of the UK :)

Louise2017-07-14T00:00:00Z

The Coach House was a true peaceful retreat. My husband and I visited for a relaxing weekend away in the country and it didn't dissapoint. We arrived and were welcomed with some local treats and essentials. Rachel showed us around the cottage and was really informative on what we could do in the area. We walked into wells one of the days straight from ththe cottage, there's a farmers market on a Saturday. The walk was about 2 miles each way across some fields and then a concrete path. Very beautiful and you are off the road apart from about 10 minutes. We also tried the Red Lion pub as recommended but Rachel. The pub was about a 25 minute drive from the coach house but was well worth it. Food and atmosphere great. The coach house itself couldn't be faulted. The kitchen was fully equipped. The house was spotless and all the bed linen and towels were superior quality. We will definitely be back again some day as we didn't get chance to visit Glastonbury Tor. Well worth the money if u are looking for an escape into the country!

Sarah2017-04-23T00:00:00Z

My wife and I had an absolutely lovely stay in the coach house over Christmas, we couldn't recommend it more highly. It's in a tiny, quiet village but only 2 minutes from Wells that's has everything you need, and really close to Cheddar and Glastonbury. The coach house is in the driveway of the main house but we had all the privacy in the world, and there are some great walks to do nearby. Rachel and Ian really have thought of everything - we were able to cook a full roast dinner in the fully equipped kitchen, the linen and towels were great and there's a smart TV, WiFi, DVD's, and a selection of books. They also made us feel really welcome, with a few basics, welcome goodies and they had told Father Christmas we were there too! We were invited to drinks with their neighbours on Christmas day (basically the whole town) which was fun, but there was absolutely no pressure and we could have easily kept to ourselves if we had wanted to. Such a relaxing getaway! Thanks again.

Comfortable and spacious room, with shower en-suite.
A modern house, with on street parking, it is just a 5 minute walk to the cobbled street of Catherine Hill, with it's independent shops and boutiques leading you to Frome's town centre.
On the first Sunday of the month (Mar to Dec) this is taken over by the wonderful Frome Independent Market.
Frome is also near many other great places to visit - half an hour from Bath, Wells, Glastonbury and many beautiful Somerset and Wiltshire villages.

With its en-suite and drink-making facilities, you can be completely independent in this spacious room. I have provided a TV, DVD player, hair drier and iron for your use, and there is an excellent wifi connection. You can also use the small room nearby set up with continental breakfast provisions and a microwave.
However, you are also more than welcome to use the facilities in my kitchen/diner.

Frome is a wonderful little market town, full of amazing independent shops and cafés - "best place to live in the south west" according to the Sunday Times. It is just a 10 minute walk to the centre down the attractive cobbled Catherine Hill - recently voted 14th prettiest street in Britain. On the first Sunday of every month (Mar - Dec) the whole town centre is taken over by the Independent Market full of quirky artisan and vintage stalls, delicious local foods and live music.
There are also plenty of places to visit nearby. Longleat is just a 15 minute drive and it is only half an hour to Georgian Bath, Wells with its glorious Cathedral Close and Glastonbury's famous Abbey and Tor.

Brilliant location and the room is absolutely fabolous and very nicely decorated. With en suite bathroom inside the room, it was all very clean and our host was really nice to us. Very good value, reccomended.

Maria2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

This needs more than 5 stars! Jane is a lovely host and made us feel very welcome and was very accommodating. The room was clean and just lovely and we had our own breakfast room which was perfect. I would recommend this room to anyone looking to stay in frome!

Sapphire2017-08-26T00:00:00Z

Jane's place is well located for exploring Frome, being only a short walk into the town centre and a plethora of interesting shops. It took only 15 minutes to get to from Longleat. The stay was incredibly comfortable - a beautifully decorated room, a spacious ensuite bathroom, breakfast in the lovely little breakfast room and an attentive host. Can't wait to return!

With separate bathroom facilities and integrated living space this is the perfect retreat for a cosy weekend away for two. With your own private garden and terrace area with views across the Mendip hills and the Tor, a range walks right from the doorstep, and many popular destinations only a short drive away, Our Glastonbury "Login" is a perfect base for a quick break or a longer stay.

A bespoke "Login" - hand made log cabin designed to make your stay enjoyable - a real home from home.

Eclectic and Interesting, Glastonbury is a unique town with a wealth of history and mythology to immerse yourself in.

Really cool place in a good location in Glastonbury. We had a great stay!

Georgina2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

My girlfriend and I stayed for one night in the Luxurious Login. It was a surprise for her and she absolutely loved it (so did I). Perfect for a romantic trip, great facilities and Talia kindly left us some supplies for breakfast in the morning. We would highly recommend it and would love to stay here again!

Nick2017-07-29T00:00:00Z

Lovely cabin. Wonderful views

Greg2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

Talia's login is beautiful! It has everything you need and more, the fresh eggs left for us for breakfast was a lovely touch. The login is beautifully situated, with great views, and only a short walk into the town and up the Tor. Highly recommended, we'll be coming back!

Geoff2017-07-15T00:00:00Z

We loved our stay in the Login, it was perfectly located just off Bove Town (which we learnt from a local to mean "a-bove" town). Made such sense when we knew! The cabin is compact but well equipped and very romantic. I was on a course in Glastonbury around various locations within the town and found the Login to be within 5 minutes car journey away from all of them. We would definitely come back to stay here oh and the "resident cat" was just so cute!! A regular visitor

Helen2017-08-17T00:00:00Z

Spot on! Fantastic host and a really lovely place. Would be happy to stay a week in this lovely shack! Much better than expected!

Stunning spacious stylish double room (very private & secluded) Continental breakfast to enjoy at leisure in your room. Sleeps 5 - kingsize bed, air bed & travel cot. Pets welcome & French spoken. We live in a separate section of this enormous beautiful arty house, full of period features, with amazing huge walled garden, just over 5 mins walk to town. The house has a friendly, informal feel & lends itself perfectly as a b&b; we also have lodgers so very used to others around. Stay with us!

A grand and very special Grade 11 listed large Georgian house brimming with art and lovely furniture, with a beautiful huge walled garden a stone's throw from Frome town centre. Located in the Fromefield Conservation area, the house dates from 1607, although most of the building was completed in 1710. It really is a stunning house and has some beautiful features, plasterwork, cornicing and sweeping staircase. Lots of beams, elm floorboards and quirky features abound. Its cosy warm in winter, we'll light a fire in the sitting room if you'd like and cool in summer.
ABOUT US
We're creative and arty, my partner works in the music business and has worked with major bands all over the world and I've had worked in events and fundraising for major charities, as a Chef, Make Up Artist and trained in Interior Design and Floristry, plus working in Homelessness.
YOUR ROOM - is on the second floor (32 steps) and is very private. There are no other bedrooms next to yours. You will share a bathroom immediately next to your room with one of our lodgers who has a room at the other end of the corridor. The bedroom has a king size bed and a double size top quality air bed (Aerobed), or a single size air bed with an integrated sleeping bag which unzips half way down each side and we have spare blankets. There is also a travel cot. When the double mattress is set up I have to move the small sofa into the corridor. Its a very old house and the second floor does have some sloping floors in the bathroom and corridor. The bedroom has a 42" flat screen and a fan for hot weather. We provide shower wash/shampoo/conditioner/hand soap/hand cream, all made by a local company - very natural, no nasties.
There is wifi throughout the house and dvd/virgin available in the sitting room on the ground floor which is available for your use and our lodgers.
Our living area is in a separate section on the ground floor and our bedrooms are in a separate wing on the 1st floor.
ART
Your room and stairwell also has art displayed by local artists - currently photographs of landscapes around Frome.
BREAKFAST
You will be able to help yourself to a simple continental style breakfast in your room. A fridge is located in the corridor outside your room. You will find muesli/granola/porridge, yoghurts, fresh fruit, brioche/breakfast bars, tea/coffee/herbal/hot chocolate, fresh organic milk from our local farm and orange juice. Alternatively, if you'd prefer a hot breakfast or something different we can point you in the direction of numerous excellent cafes offering a wide choice of menus, a short walk away, many of which are open from 7am. Its also a good reason to go exploring wonderful Frome. We decided to offer self serve breakfast in the room as many friends have commented that's what they would prefer, rather than having to face others in the morning or being confined to set times.
CHILDREN
We have a travel cot if you have a baby/toddler, which has a bottom sheet and 2 cotton blankets. If that's not enough you'd need to bring additional bedding. If we move the sofa out of the room, then both the air bed and travel cot would fit in the room meaning you could bring 3 children in total. We have an Angelcare baby monitor so you can sit in our guest lounge safe in the knowledge you will hear your children. We have a travel picnic chair with tray for a baby which either sits on the floor or straps on a chair. Please note we don't have a stair gate. There are toys available and a sandpit outside. We will provide Cheerios for childrens' breakfasts but you will need to provide any other food they might need.
OUR LODGERS
The house is so large you may not even see our lodgers, we don't sometimes for days in a row as everyone has busy work lives. We're all very respectful of each others space and there is a good balance between having your own privacy and finding someone to talk with if you wish.
OTHER INFO
Week nights are available to book singly, however Fri and Sat nights are a 2 night minimum booking. We welcome business travellers/contractors, families, singles and couples.
We bought the house six years ago and started renovations to turn it into a b&b. Completely rewired, with a commercial integrated smoke alarm system and sophisticated hot water system means there is constant hot water available at a good pressure. We unexpectedly had a baby and initially decided to have a business housing lodgers instead of b&b guests, although now we intend on having a hybrid of the two. We've had many lodgers over the years and everyone seems to have loved living here.
Everyone seems to love our house and we hope you like the sound of it too and wish to come and stay. We look forward to meeting you.

Frome is a fantastic, trendy, vibrant, small market town, ranking no. 5 as the best place to live in the South West according to the Sunday Times 2017 listing, who describe it as...an artsy-foodie hipster haven. From funky cafe's galore, best ice cream parlour ever, cool restaurants and the best in quirky, independent and oh so fashionable shops on Catherine Hill, to the dear independently run Westway Cinema with licenced bar, great music venue at the Cheese & Grain and late night dance sessions at the Wheatsheaves, not to mention the Silk Mill, Rook Lane and the Black Swan Arts centres. And of course the famous monthly Independent market taking over the whole town. Babington House is 8 miles away. Frome has been featured on Countryfile, The One Show, Radio 4 and in many newspaper articles for it's often ground breaking initiatives. We think Frome really has it all.
There are lots of interesting places to visit nearby so Frome is a great place to base oneself and staying at Garden House means you can enjoy the pleasure of living in a beautiful spacious Georgian building, with a tranquil garden to relax in, all a short walk away from the fun things to do in the town centre with no need to drive.

My daughter and I spent two nights at Gillys Place. We were left to our own devices which suited us just fine as we were busy visiting my Father. The bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet, so we slept very well. Was very grateful for the Illy coffee! Thank you Gilly and Andrew.

Sarajane2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

The room was really nice - well fitted and characterful beams. The light breakfast arrangements were very convenient and the tea/coffee etc. was great. We loved he garden - it was very relaxing to sit in. We were made very welcome and highly recommend it to others.

Austin2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

Gilly was an excellent host, and every last detail had been thought of. The room was beautiful beautifully decorated and the bed was really comfortable! Its a short walk into town, so was perfect for our girly weekend away.

A charming old Mendip cottage with period features that was once tied to a former local brewery. It's close to Kilver Court, the Bath & West Showground and is midway between Glastonbury and Bath, and between Wells and Frome.

Great room with a high ceiling is ideal for two but will sleep three. There are two double beds: one full-size double on a mezzanine accessed by a ladder, the other is a small double sofa bed. There is a desk, fast WiFi, TV and DVD player.
Continental breakfast provided.

Eating: The Oakhill Inn is just a 5-minute walk away and currently offers guests a 10% discount. Good food with local produce, plus pizzas.
Oakhill lies within the Mendip Hills so is good for walking, and for visiting Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole, Wells Cathedral, Bath, Longleat and Stourhead.
Mulberry and Kilver Court retail outlet (Toast, Whistles etc) garden and cafe is just two miles away.

Wonderful hosts in a very interesting house! The shared use of the bathroom and toilet was absolutely no problem. We were also allowed to use the dining room. :-) Thanks for the good tips and interesting discussions!

Tanja2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Beautiful and very special place. We were only able to stay for one night due to our short brake but that's definitely wasn't enough for us and we wished we could stay longer. Jackie was a wonderful host and she made us feel very welcome. The pictures of her home does not show the real beauty of this place. The village is lovely and quiet. There is a pub in the village serving amazing food and offering you a discount if you're staying at Jackie's. Many interesting places to see in the area, really worth to visit ( Jackie was very helpful with that too ) Breakfast was very very nice thank you! We are hope to see you again.

Monika2017-09-03T00:00:00Z

Awesome place and even better than the photos. Shower works amazing. The doorways are a little short as a 6foot 4inch person I had to duck a bit but the amazing host totally made me forget the slight discomfort of ducking. Definitely would stay again

Ciaran2017-08-09T00:00:00Z

This is a lovely cottage and a first-class host with great local knowledge and a super welcome. It's cosy and comfortable here - and a breakfast I'll remember for some time to come ... Thank you Jackie!

MaryAnne2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Jackie and Jim are warm, sensitive and interesting hosts whom we affectionately wish all the best.

Rob2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

A beautiful home and beautiful people who took great care to attend to every detail. I loved my brief stay here and really appreciated the cleanliness, comfort and consideration. Excellent breakfast and good food at the local pub if you need an evening meal. I wouldn't hesitate to stay in this charming spot again! Thank you Jackie!

Achali2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

Lovely house the and very peaceful. Jackie was a brilliant host, made a marvellous breakfast and the price was tremendous value. Highly recommended

dan2016-06-27T00:00:00Z

This is such a beautiful and warm bnb. Jackie and her partner are both incredibly friendly yet respectfully mindful of your personal space. They are an absolute wealth of information about the region and 30 minuets chatting to them in the morning will make for planning an amazing day touring and sightseeing. We can not recommend highly enough. We loved staying here.

A room with 2 single beds and a shared toilet/bathroom in a self built eco house, surrounded by woods, scrap, artistic individuals, inspiration, walks, etc. This is our home where we live with Boris the cat and the accompanying chaos... 10 miles from Bath and Bristol.

What makes it unique... What doesn't!! You won't find many places like this (in England at least)... It's more like a West Coast USA house as seen in Lloyd Khans amazing books (look him up). And there's an adjacent scrapyard! And many different facets within the site - beautiful vegetable garden, craftsmen... feel free to get involved if you want.
Another part of the site is populated by friends engaged in Circus, Theatre and Prop work for places such as Glastonbury, Boomtown festivals etc.
This is separate to the house as is the scrapyard and you would never know there was so much going on around you. Our visitors often remark that what they found most noticeable, was the silence in the morning - no city noise or light pollution here!
This is our family home with a cat and the accompanying chaos of a disused quarry that is home to around 15 people living in trailers and cabins etc almost all employed in creative industries.. If you're looking for somewhere fastidiously neat and tidy or you're scared of spiders it's not for you but if you like what you see, we'd love to have you here :-)

The house is set in approx 6-7 acres of land part of which used to be a scrapyard and some of which we still run as such. There are woods and great walks very close by and good bus connections for Bristol, Bath, Wells and Glastonbury. We are about half a mile from the village of Temple Cloud in a secluded, redundant stone quarry. There are mature oak trees all around the house and the site.
We still run a van dismantling business from the adjacent yard and help out from time to time with artistic projects involving scrap, including photography, film and video projects. If you're looking for inspiration or looking to meet people to help further your ideas and plans , we may be able to point you in the right direction or hook you up with the right people... I'm hoping that the B and B will just help to make further and far reaching connections and not just be a soulless interaction... Of course though we are just as happy for people to come and just chill.

Wow, what can I say about my stay at Rockaway that would do it justice?! Before staying at Rockaway, I had never felt sad to be leaving any accommodation I've ever booked. I did not want to leave Rockaway, ever! My stay completely exceeded my expectations on every level. I really could not have imagined booking a more perfect place to stay for my week of working in Bath. There is something magical about Rockaway, maybe it's the incredible house that's full of wonderfully artistic pieces, loving warmth and comfort, or maybe it's the very lovely Marta and Mark who very quickly became like family to me, I'm not sure...but I left there knowing 100% that I will soon be returning to soak up some more of what this place has to offer. Marta spoilt me with her fabulous cooking skills, she served up the most delicious dishes every evening, she is incredibly kind, generous, thoughtful and gentle and such a delight to be around. Mark is possibly the most fascinating person I have ever met, full of creativity, knowledge, wisdom, enthusiasm and positivity, all encompassed by the biggest heart I have ever encountered. Both Marta and Mark, along with their beautiful home, Rockaway, hold a very special place in my heart and I will be forever grateful to them for every second of my stay. Look forward to seeing you both again :-) xxx

Danielle2015-07-30T00:00:00Z

Marta was there to greet us, showed us our room and the communal dining area. Rockaway was wonderful place to stay and lived up to it's description. There was so much to see , exotic plants in the entrance hall, a lovely quirky bathroom. The bed was really comfortable and the place was quiet at night.... slept like a log. We helped ourselves to some fresh coffee in the morning and had a long chat to Mark. The main dining area was light and led on to the garden with a bench where you could sit and admire the excellent view. There were interesting pictures and artefacts to muse upon. We also enjoyed the 'scrap/junk' cars and sculptures in the yard behind accompanied by some hungry chickens.

Maggie2015-07-20T00:00:00Z

Marta, Mark and his daughter Rose have been great and friendly hosts. Their home is simply amazing, very comfortable and atypic but that is why we have chosen it. The view from the living room is beautiful, you never get tired of looking at it. Easy to go to Bristol and Bath from there. If you need a quiet place with lots of nature around, and want to enjoy a warm welcoming, this is the place to go! We would recommand it with no hesitation!

Pierre2015-08-12T00:00:00Z

I would recommend Marta's place for anyone staying in Clutton. We truly enjoyed our stay and everyone who lived/stayed there was so hospitable. Even though she has a long list of suggestions for dining and local activities. The home itself is so special, Marta's and Mark home design skills will delight you, I guarantee! We loved the location and slept very well in the comfortable bed. The view is just beautiful. We would definitely recommend staying!

We recently stayed here for 3 nights with our 6 and 8 year old girls and loved it! It is in a great location and only a short walk into the town centre. Faye and her family were very welcoming and the Old Bottling Factory is beautifully decorated. There was some local artists work displayed on the walls in support of the local cancer charity which we thought was a nice touch. We were lucky enough to sample some delicious homemade baking. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Frome and would definitely stay there again, thank you

Sally2017-07-11T00:00:00Z

Lovely apartment, Faye was very accommodating and couldn't do enough for us.

Carlie-Jo2017-08-21T00:00:00Z

Would definitely recommend! What a cute little place! So tastefully designed with characteful features everywhere (and greeted by Faye's homemade cakes). Really clean and comfortable. Such good value for money. Maybe a slight squeeze for four people if you're planning on spending a lot of time in there but absolutely perfect as a base to come back to at the end of a long day. Frome itself is a beautiful town with plenty of independent shops; vintage clothes shops, bakeries, florists and so many cafes and restaurants to choose from (and they're good ones!) We'd recommend Sam's Kitchen, La Bisalta and Arch Angel in particular. There's so much to do around the area. Biking, hiking and exploring nearby towns/cities; Bath, Mells (If you go, make sure you have a drink in the Talbot Inn), Glastonbury (where there's an outdoor pool if you happen to be there on a melting sunny day like we were) and plenty of other places. All in all; a fabulous stay! Diolch Faye and Dave xxx

Gwenno2017-06-19T00:00:00Z

Nice little apartment within easy walking distance from Frome. Tasty brownies upon arrival (still trying to work out what was the magic ingredient) and basics were provided for tea and breakfast. Faye and her husband were very accommodating with our baby related requests and answering our questions/helping us out.

Beautiful 200 year old cottage deep in the Somerset countryside and only 10 minute easy drive to Glastonbury. The house is very peaceful with a garden that birds love - complete with a driveway to park 2-3 cars.
Guest have sole use of majority of cottage. This comprises a large double, comfortable bedroom with kingsize bed, a private bathroom and a cosy sitting room with log fire. An additional small single bedroom (suitable for a teenager) is available on request at no extra cost. There is ...

We are set in an delightful location on a quiet country lane deep in the Somerset countryside. Surrounded by dairy farms, apple orchards and big open skies. Just 20 mins from the A303, 7 miles from Glastonbury, 9 miles from Wells yet within walking distance of the Glastonbury Festival site. There are also glorious walks and cycle routes from the front door.
Guest have private use of the majority of the cottage. This comprises large comfortable, double bedroom with king size bed, a private bathroom and cosy sitting room with log fire. There is shared use of the kitchen and dining-cum-living area; a wonderful modern light filled space with views onto garden. This would be a a perfect spot for quiet contemplation or to work if needed - or to just recharge after a busy day.
I can drop and pick up from festival site or from Castle Cary station (for a small fee) when available. We can discuss when booking
- see Overview

Holly Tree Cottage is nestled on the side of a hill deep in the Somerset country side. Surrounded by dairy farms and lush green field there is a wonderful variety of wildlife including badgers and the many birds that visit. There are fabulous walks from the doorstep many of which are ancient pilgrims paths going across the Somerset Levels and a wooded Combe complete with natural waterfall.
We are 10 minutes from the medieval town of Glastonbury with its ruined abbey, eclectic mix of shops and of course Glastonbury Tor.
Wells (England's smallest city) is only 9 miles away and has a world famous cathedral and Bishop's Palace and beautiful gardens. There is a lively market where you can buy locally made artisan bread, delicious cheese from just up the road in Cheddar and award winning local wine or beer - just bring a blanket and picnic under a cedar tree by the moat.
Westhay and Meare nature reserves are also close by where you can watch migratory birds gather including wonderful starling murmurations in the winter time.
For those who like to shop we have Kilver Court Designer Village nearby where you can also have a nice al fresco lunch or Clarks Village Shopping Outlet packed with bargains from all the major high street stores.
There are many good pubs and bistros that I can recommend nearby or a little further afield (25 mins) first class dining is available at The Holcombe Inn ( fab Sunday lunch & dogs welcome) The Red Lion at Babcary or Hauser and Wirth at Bruton- take your pick!
After all that how about trying out one of the many cycle routes - one goes right past cottage. The Somerset Levels are great for cycling - and if your really keen then there's always Cheddar Gorge and the Mendips.

Our stay with Rachel was memorable.I booked it for my partner's 70th birthday surprise and I couldn't have chosen better.The house is an old cottage with lots of interesting features which has a light and airy modern extension. The bedroom is large with a very comfortable bed and the private bathroom is very well fitted out with an excellent shower and a bath.We had the living room with an inglenook fireplace for our own use and we shared the kitchen and dining area with Rachel which was great as she is such a friendly and informative host.She gave us a lot of useful advice about the area and had plenty of guidebooks and maps which she lent us.There is a lovely garden where you can watch the birds feeding as you eat Rachel's delicious breakfasts. When the weather is good,there are several pretty outdoor areas where you can sit . It really is a beautiful house and Rachel is the perfect host.You always have the choice of a interesting chat with her or being in your own private spaces ,indoors or outdoors. We honestly couldn't recommend it highly enough and would definitely stay there again.

Dorothy2017-08-18T00:00:00Z

Great stay in a spacious and unusual cottage, with loads of interesting features and places to hang out privately. The glorious gardens have fresh strawberries to nibble. Comfy bed, great shower...all mod cons! We shared only the kitchen with our host Rachel, and she was delightful, making sure all our needs were met, even gave us a lift right up to the Glastonbury Festival gate. Would definitely return.

Dina2017-06-23T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Rachel's cottage was perfect. She was a lovely hostess who welcomed us into her home and made us feel very comfortable. The room was very large with a comfortable bed and large bathroom with all modern amenities. Per the description, the kitchen and lounge were shared with Rachel who stayed on site in a small garden house, but this was a positive for us, as Rachel prepared a delicious and plentiful breakfast and was generous enough to give us a lift to the Glastonbury festival site both days we stayed. The cottage is probably a bit too far to walk home in the evenings, but we managed to get a taxi for £25 each night which was worth it considering we had a lovely bed and shower to look forward to! We would definitely stay here again.

Derk-Jan2017-06-26T00:00:00Z

Thank you for letting my husband and myself stay in your cottage. You have such a lovely place and you were very welcoming. Look forward to staying at your cottage again.

Keeran2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Rachel has a lovely country home, she has recently had an extension done which is great. Rachel is an accommodating host, kind and generous. The place was clean and very comfortable. Had some lovely country walks near by. Rachel also baked for us on a couple of occasions. Her chocolate courgette cake is worth a stay alone. We were really pleased with our choice to stay at Rachel's and will definitely stay again.

A converted barn in the unique Somerset village of Mells. Entirely your own hideaway with private terrace and parking. And a short walk to a great shop, cafe and award-winning pub and restaurant. Perfect for exploring Bath and the West Country.

The Little House is a converted dairy and is situated next to our farmhouse in the village of Mells, Somerset. It sleeps 2 adults +. The accommodation comprises a sitting room with dining area, kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom, mezzanine and extra bed, and off street parking.
The south facing sitting room looks out onto fields and has glass doors opening onto a terrace with eating area. It has a TV with DVD player. The kitchen is fully fitted with a fridge, dishwasher, combination oven and microwave cooker and various small appliances. The bedroom has a king-sized double bed with separate shower-room, and stairs leading to the mezzanine library, which has a single fold out bed. The mezzanine also has a desk and chair.

The village of Mells which dates back to the 11th century, is thought to be one of the prettiest in Somerset. It has a traditional pub, the Talbot Inn, a village shop & cafe, a church, and many historic buildings. It is 30 minutes from the Roman city of Bath, one hour from the world heritage site of Stonehenge, 1-2 hours from the South coast, and close to many interesting country walks as well as a host of west country towns, villages and attractions. There is a good bus service in the village with busses every two hours to Frome and Bath.

Fantastic conversation in a great location, would recommend for couples wanting a nice getaway.

A lovely, cozy place to stay! Very clean and everything you need for a short stay. We stayed for two nights for a wedding at Wick Farm and was ideal location. Definitely need a car. There's a little shop at the end of the road but a bit pricey for basic things so would recommend a stop of at a supermarket before arriving. The 3rd bed is on a little balcony in the bedroom, which we knew before we went, but good to make sure you're comfortable with people you're sharing with! Overall loved it and would definitely stay again!

Eimear2016-10-24T00:00:00Z

Lovely site in the beautiful english countryside. Jane's place is cozy and perfect, very comfortable. The surroundings are simply stunning. We couldn't recommend it more!

Our cottage, set in the grounds of our home, is close to the cities of Bath and Wells as well as Bristol airport, Castle Cary station, Glastonbury, Bath and West show, Babington House and several schools including Downside, All Hallows , Wells Cathedral and Millfield . We are situated on the edge of the Mendip hills just a walk away. The cottage is full of character and laid out over three floors. My place is great for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, and families (with kids).

The cottage has wonderful views over the gardens and is full of character.

Close to several great pubs including the Talbot in Mells and the Holcombe Inn.

We arrived in the afternoon and everything was set up for us. Marie's daughter had made some banana bread which was delicious and a really nice touch. We were only staying one night but the cottage was very cosy and it would be an ideal base for exploring. Marie recommended a few restaurants and we went to the holcolme inn, it was fabulous.. Highly recommend this place. Parking was a little tight as its on the road, but once we parked up it was ok. Marie was very helpful and I would have no problem recommending this place..

celine2016-07-19T00:00:00Z

Marie and her husband are wonderful hosts who are providing an exceptional service to their clients. We were well informed as to the local area and places to eat. The cottage is beautiful and full of character, would highly recommend and the lemon drizzle cake provided for our arrival was delicious! thank you!
